Default My Build as of now

First off let me introduce myself. My names John Colangelo, Im from Jersey and im rarely on here but I have been a member for quite some time. I do get alot of info out of everyone and all the threads on here so thank you.

I own a Silver 2008 enthusiast Z....Auto trans (stock gears) and has 52000 miles on it

My mods done thus far are......

MOTOR:
Injen CAIs
OBX 370 longtubes
magnaflow resonated x-pipe
Hks x pipe back
Stillen oil cooler
mishimoto trans cooler
Nismo thermostat
Tuned w/ Uprev
300whp/250trq
zex 75 shot

Extras:
Ebaich lowering springs
Stillen front and rear Sway bars

Recently purchased:
M/T 265/40/18 ET street radials
Zexs Bottle warmer
Varrstoen te37 replicas 18" +30 offset
Nismo v2. rep front bumper


The car for me is a weekend driver and It sees the track fairly often.
I have sprayed about a full bottle through it thus far (Not at the track) but it is a blast to drive. Even on the 75 shot (dunno if thats whp or not) but it runs very well w/o being tuned for it. I eventually wanna go GTM or JWT twin turbo'd.

Here are some pics of the Nitrous install n some N/A time slips. Im running 225/45/18 eagles all around for the winter havent changed em yet.

Well worth the money. On normal street driving, you'll barely feel it. On the highway or spirited driving, different story.

Cool deals ill have to read up on this some more. I'm very impressed with how everything handles as of now. I forgot what r/t said but they removed a delay when shifting or something of the sort? its been awhile might be on my recipt. Would this affect the tune I have in anyway?

You can improve the 5AT shifting somewhat through UpRev, but this is more of a physical upgrade (stiffer springs in the valve body) that requires no ECU modification. This wouldn't affect the tune in anyway, and you wouldn't need a re-tune afterwards too. It's well worth the money being a 5AT, seeing as how you already have LTH's I doubt you're one who wouldn't enjoy the harsher (in a good way), but crisper shifts
